Popis: Staphylococcus aureus has been increasing globally, which negatively affects food safety, human and veterinary medicine. It colonizes about 30% of the world population, causing superficial skin and soft tissue infections. The dynamics of direct (human-to-human) and indirect (environment-to-human) transmission, shedding, and treatment failure of the disease remains an open epidemiological challenge. Therefore, this study introduces a mathematical model that incorporates both direct and indirect transmission cycle, effect of shedding, treatment failure and time-dependent control parameters. We derive an expression for the basic reproduction number, R0s, under different scenarios. Using comparison, Lyapunov and center manifold theories, we establish that the non-optimal control model is globally asymptotically stable whenever R0s
